Fighting homelessness and housing exclusion in Europe

Fighting homelessness and housing exclusion in Europe

Homelessness and housing exclusion (HHE) are extreme forms of social exclusion that need to be addressed through integrated approaches that successfully deliver on Principle 19 of the European Pillar of Social Rights. However, while progress in this regard is being achieved by an increasing number of European countries, there has been an overall upward trend in HHE across Europe over the last decade. This Synthesis Report produced by the European Social Policy Network (ESPN) shows that preventing and tackling HHE remains a key challenge which can only be effectively addressed by building strategic collaborative frameworks involving all relevant stakeholders, significantly strengthening evidence-based policies, providing adequate funding and also by efficiently monitoring and assessing existing measures.
